the Board was not party to, nor did he sign the contract drawn up between the Board of Wagon Road Commission CTS and the Holbrook Bridge, Dam and Irrigating Company.
 It is well-known fact that the first flood in the river took out the dam and with it the bridge.
 We find further that two members of the Wagon Road Commissioners were stockholders in the Holbrook Dam and Irrigating Company.
 3d. It seems to us that the amount of work done upon the county roads and the amount of money paid for this work, are terribly disproportionste, with the single exception of the Navajo Bridge. It is very evident that the rate paid for labor upon these roadsis unusually high.
 4th. The Chairman of the Board com plains that the Secretary seldom noti- fled him of the dates upon which meet lngs were to be held, thus preventing his presence at such meeting.
 5th. The books of the Board have been badly kept. There are no itemized bills of supplies, etc., purchased by the Board, to accompany the books as vouchers. We also find that s200 has been paid for legal advice for which we can find no authority, the Attorney Gen- erai being the legally constituted ad- visor of such Boards.

The fact having been made to appear by satisfactory evidence to this Grand Jury, that one c. F. Cate, Justice of the Peace of this county, in and for the Precinct of Winslow, has been and is guilty of gross misconduct and malfeas- ance in his office as such Justice of the Peace, in this, that said c. F. Cate has appropriated and converted to his own use and disposal certain bank check placed in his hands as evidence in a charge of forgery pending before said c. F. Cate; therefore we recommend that the Board of Supervisors of this county forthwith remove said c. F. Cate from said office, and appoint success sor to him.

 Foreman Grand Jury
 The Grand Jury, as body, desire to express their appreciation of the efforts made by the county officials to assist them in their labors; to the Court, to the District Attorney, who has worked day and night to hasten our efforts; to the Sheriff and his able deputies, who have so promptly carried out the impor- tant duties imposed upon them by us, and to tho Traocuror ooJ Tlo~I oe &l, o Board of the Board of Supervisors, who have done everything possible to facili- tate investigations into the county rec ords.
 Owing to the sudden termination of our work, we earnestly recommend to the next Grand Jury, careful exami- nation of our reports upon the various county officials and their books, and also that the subject of the bonds of the late county officials be carefully looked into.
 Having looked into this ma tier we find that many of thee bonds were be- low the sums required by law, and that the oaths made upon them regarding the amount of property owned by the bondsmen, are in many instances known to be false.
 In Q word we hope the next Grand Jury will take up our work where we have been obliged to leave off.
